Exactly, they're always like "ha coward" or "you're bad". They know you don't want to battle and they call you a coward, just to have fun at teasing you, when they really are the bad ones. For example, in the Best Wishes series of the anime...

This one girl had a Gothita that was bossy and wanted Ash's Scraggy. The girl challenged Ash to a battle — if Ash lost, he would have to give Scraggy to the girl. When Ash declined, she then went to say that his four gym badges were probably counterfeit if he didn't want to battle. The difference is, Ash battled and he won.
